Welcome to Max's Sandman Fan Page

The Sandman--a.k.a. Dream a.k.a. Morpheus--is a character in a series of comic books by the English writer Neil Gaiman. Though the Sandman was originally created as a typical 1970s comic book hero illustrated by Jack Kirby, in the 1990s version of the character imagined by Gaiman he is a being older than and in some ways more powerful than a god. He has six siblings: Destiny, Death, Desire, Despair, Destruction, and Delirium (formerly Delight).

There are 10 Sandman trade paperbacks: Preludes and Nocturnes, The Doll's House, Dream Country, Season of Mists, A Game of You, Fables and Reflections, Brief Lives, World's End, The Kindly Ones, and The Wake. There are also some one-offs, and a late sequel called Overture, which is not very good. I think The Doll's House and The Kindly Ones are the best collections, but you should read them in order. My favorite is probably World's End.
